! WARNING:

Danger of injury! Only attach the appliance parts when the appliance is not connected to the power supply. Otherwise the machine might start up and parts of your body, hair or pieces of clothing might be sucked in.

CAUTION:

Before assembling, make sure that the fitted nozzle suits the surface to be cleaned. Do not clean e.g. any floors or objects with a brush with rotating bristles that you would not clean without a second thought with a conventional brush. Also observe the flooring manufacturer's recommendations.

NOTE:

You might have to twist the parts when connecting them so they are securely in place. Ensure that installed parts are secure by trying to pull them apart.

1. Assemble the appliance and accessory parts depending on the surface you want to vacuum clean (Fig. 1 – 8).
2. Ensure that the bypass vent is closed (Fig. 5).
3. If you use the telescopic tube (Fig. 6), set its length (Fig. 7).
4. If you use the floor nozzle (Fig. 8), set it to the floor to be vacuumed (Fig. 9 hard floor, Fig. 10 carpet).

1. Vacuum clean (Fig. 15).

WARNING:

Danger of injury! Especially when vacuum-cleaning stairs make sure that you always stand on a higher level than the appliance.

NOTE:

Your vacuum cleaner has an integrated protective function that triggers before the appliance can overheat (e.g. due to blocked suction paths or a full dust filter bag), ▷ Chapter 4.1, 'Before you send in the appliance'.
